Paxville will come in Dual and Quad arrangements even though Dempsey, INTEL's mainstream dual-core processor, will not be out until 2006. The new Paxville chips will run at 2.8 GHz, 800 MHz FSB and have 2MB of L2 cache.
Intel's Paxville move "is clearly a time-to-market vehicle, a reaction to at least the perception of success that AMD is enjoying with Opteron," said TechKnowledge Strategies analyst Mike Feibus. "I don't think it'll make a dent in Intel's overall sales. It's more for chest-thumping purposes."
